I really like that reflective water drop and Krunal, for my tastes, I prefer the second version. It looks less busy.

Cheers,

Carol

Oh well. Now Bill is going to take his class in Refractive Optics, Carol

. I still remember the slap on the wrist from 2 years back.

Krunal, I prefer the 2nd photo. I quite like the soft feel and the refraction in the water drop. Nicely seen.

I think I prefer the first one Krunal. I love the little flower that shows up in the water droplet.

I prefer the second version too Krunal and I love the refracted daisy in the droplet. I don't normally like a flower of the same color used as as bg but in this case I do. Beautiful image, no suggestions.

The first version pops a little more for me, and the flower in the drop is amazing!

Wow, excellent. That reflected flower in the water droplet really makes this unique. Stunning.

I prefer the first version.

Krunal: I like the sharpness of the first version, especially the refraction through the drop. This is well seen and captured. I can see that we're going to have to have some remedial optics for those who are calling this a reflection

. Beautiful shot. >=))>

Krunal:
Like the 2nd version more. The refraction (hope I get this right Bill) is fantastic.
